FASA Romulan WArbod from Year one Soaurcebook

FASA’s Star Trek the Next Generation Year One Sourcebook’s the small Romulan D’deridex class B Warbird conversion

I remember before Last Unicorn came out with the STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION Core Book FASA had a TNG officer’s manual and a year one sourcebook. They had variations of the Romulan Warbird in it that was a small version. I have never seen a Spacedock version of it so I generated it up here. It is a little bulldog of a ship but it can be useful here and there if it comes to be needed.

At present I have no name for the Bulldog except the nickname and that is it till I think of something that sounds like a Romulan designation. I plan to use it in an upcoming scenario where this vessel is there to run off a Constellation class starship that is in the vicinity. I think I will be using the optional systems listed at the bottom as the FASA Conversion over is a little on the weak side and I think the upgrades or optional systems are great to give the Federation ship and crew a challenge.

As for the looks I would picture it just as FASA has a smaller version of the D’deridex class Warbird. It fits well into the Romulan Family of ships. The only problem I have with it is I can’t think of a name that sounds Romulan.

Class and Type: CLASS NAME UNKNOWN FEDERATION CLASSIFICATION OF SHIP AS CRUISER
Commissioning Date: Early third of the 24th Century

Here are some systems that can replace or augment the existing systems that are a part of the ship. It only changes up the SU’s used up 143 to 2436 still an efficient little bulldog of a ship. To the Galaxy Class and such it is hardly a threat but to the Constellation and Excelsior classes it becomes a little more of a threat to them and ships of that same rating areas.

I assumed that was the Type D Warbird. I also found the L-85 (<--Should be Z-85) Blueprints, from Temporal Graphics, and it was a Battleship-Carrier version of the Type D with 12 Photon and 4 Plasma Torpedo Launchers.
